High quality writing is mostly re-writing and re-re-writing. You won't get it right the first time. So be a bit kinder to your first drafts. They are a work in progress. They give you something to work with. #PhDForum #EMCRforum #acwri #SUAW

Nothing is more empowering than teaching/reading a powerful voice in America today like @KieseLaymon @LinfieldUniv and then going as a class to hear him engage in a brutally honest conversation with @AdamDavisOHm @orhumanities. Students were thrilled to take a photo with Kiese!
Check out our new space, which allows us to host more people AND offer multilingual services!
Special thanks to the Lacroute Initiative for the generous donation that made this possible!

If you are starting on a piece of writing, start by writing or dictating as many words as possible.
You need a large mass of words to work with initially.
Don't worry about quality, structure, or spellings.
Just put words on the page/screen so the blank page doesn't scare you.

Editing your own writing is like when you’re at the opticians and they put a succession of lenses on you and keep asking, “Better or worse?”
